I’m a materials guy. A plastic that is stable and won’t degrade and at the same time will ignite and burn and won’t foul the gun.....
The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.
It's that simple.
maybe I am over estimating the size of these rounds, but it seems they are twice as big as a conventional brass cased round...
So they are being designed to save weight, yet they are, again without measurements, twice as large.
So instead of 1 ammo can, you need to carry 2. Or instead of 1 pallet you need 2.
I dont know if weight vs. volume is a good trade off.

Lol nobody is saving any weight. The only result of reducing the weight of something joe has to carry only means joe will now carry something additional. Big green never goes backwards in this regard.

This whole thing seems like it's just another OICW: A technology concept that, after millions of dollars spent, is going to get cancelled as they find that the end product is going to be too expensive and creates more issues than it solves.

Engineering...only thing I can think of is a fixed ejector at the 8:00 and a long extractor at the 5:00 to pull out the case and facilitate removal from the chamber.
They have been working on this since the HK G11 back in the 80's; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckler_&_Koch_G11 They've had 30 years to get the Technology perfected.
